I rely on you all to cultivate

Chapter 402 Coincidence
"Good, good, good."

Zhu Talan said three good words in a row, which shows how excited he is at this time, "I just wanted you to find out the truth, but I didn't expect to be able to capture the prisoner and save a prisoner. Xu Ling, take over , Find out the conclusion and bring it to the headquarters."

Xu Ling is the commander in chief of the investigation team. The research on the discovery of new species is in his charge. Naturally, he also took over the captured and brought back monster limbs.

He took the things back and directly found Li Xian, a special expert who had been incorporated into the investigation team.

"Li Te, I will leave the stuff to you, and I will copy the effects recorded by the terminal later."

After finishing speaking, he asked Xie Yilang, "Did you see that man with a claw on his left hand? You must accompany Li Te during his research. That thing's strength is not much worse than mine."

What Xu Ling said was a bit exaggerated. Now he has roughly figured out that the Eagle Claw Monster relies on two aspects. One is the thin sword that can cut out the invisible blade wind, and the other is the eagle claw in his left hand.

The functions of these two gadgets are very similar. Both are super-strength weapons that can inspire special powers.

But other than that, he has no other means, at most, he has strong physical fitness. For example, Xu Ling's sword control technique, Jiuxuan Transformation, etc., are completely impossible to master.

Therefore, in fact, the strength of that weirdo is still a bit behind that of Xu Ling's. The overall combat power is at most a little over 6.0, and he deliberately exaggerated it, just to attract Xie Yilang's attention.

After all, experts like Li Xian are not warriors, if during the research process, if that weirdo breaks free or other accidents happen, then the responsibility will be great.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Xie Yilang's expression immediately became serious, and he stood behind Li Xian, as if he was a personal guard.

Li Xian smiled and nodded at Xu Ling: "If there is any progress, I will inform you as soon as possible."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Xu Ling said politely, "I'll go to the headquarters to see what information the rescued humans can give."

After speaking, he walked away.

Seeing his disappearing figure, Li Xian felt a little emotional.

When I saw this young man for the first time in the military headquarters, he was still a rookie in the overseas investigation team. He had just been appointed as a captain. Only a few years later, he is now a senior colonel. At this speed, he was ten thousand at the beginning. Unexpected.

When Xu Ling came to the medical tent of the headquarters, he found that the high-level military officers were almost gathered here, and they seemed to be very concerned about the rescued human prisoner.

He first asked: "Boss, is there any movement on the other side of the pass? Have those monsters chased them out?"

"No, it's very calm, even the scouting monsters don't come out anymore."

Zhu Taran replied, "However, it will be very difficult for us to cross the pass at this time. They must be prepared. Let's see how much information the captured monsters and rescued humans can give us. .”

Xu Ling nodded, before he could say anything more, he was surrounded by Zhang Yuan's group of generals.

"Xiao Xu, I heard that you caught that monster again? Your kid is very good at capturing prisoners."

"Hahaha, who's to say it's not? He led a team to capture most of the captives in the Immortal City back then in Kuliwushi."

"Hey, if you have time, help me find out if Lao Zhang's wife is having an affair with the man surnamed Wang opposite them. If so, arrest that guy too."

"Get out! Your wife is only having an affair with the neighbor."

Everyone seemed to be chatting and spanking, but they were actually waiting for the human prisoner in the medical tent to wake up. The situation was urgent when Chu Xiaojun rescued him. In order to avoid complications, he directly knocked him out and carried him on his shoulders. When he came back, the medical soldiers were checking his body.

However, judging from the atmosphere at the scene, everyone is very happy. After all, there has been a substantial breakthrough, so it means that the expeditionary force is one step closer to the truth.

At this time, the medical soldiers came out of the tent.

"Sir, he is awake and in stable condition, except for some malnutrition and skin trauma."

Everyone stopped chatting immediately, and Zhu Taran asked, "Can I accept inquiries?"

"Well... it's better to have fewer people. His mood is very unstable and he's afraid of new things. Uh, it's better. This, General Zhang Yuan, don't go in."

"Ah? What are you talking about! Why can't I enter?!"

Zhang Yuan asked kindly.

Everyone choked back their laughter, Zhu Talan finally clicked on a few more handsome ones, and of course Xu Ling was among them, not only because he was young, he looked more energetic and talkative, but also because he was the person in charge of the investigation team, he must be It cannot be avoided.

There was also a translator among the people who went in, which was also called from the experts of the investigation team, because Xu Ling had already said that the eagle-clawed monster could speak Western languages, so they inferred that the rescued human beings should also use this language. language exchange.

Several people walked into the tent and saw the rescued human being on the hospital bed. His hair was very thin and his bones were thin. His body still looked a little dirty after being wiped. The color should be salted in.

Seeing the people who came in, he obviously wanted to shrink into the corner, but the infusion tube attached to his hand reminded him that these strangers didn't seem to have any malicious intentions.

"Hello."

The female translator specially picked by Xu Ling sat down beside the bed, "How do you feel now? Is it convenient to chat?"

Seeing that the other party could speak his own language, the person on the bed opened his mouth, but did not answer, but asked instead: "Where is this, who are you?"

The translator said as gently as possible: "We are from the country of Xia in the east of the mainland, do you know the country of Xia?"

The man shook his head slightly, then stopped, and said, "A human country?"

"Yes, a human nation."

Hearing this answer, some crystal lights appeared in his cloudy eyes, and his breathing became heavy.

"Now, there is no country anymore, everyone has been arrested by them, ahem, ahem, we are all slaves."

He spoke in a confusing manner, but the meaning was easy to understand. In the world to the west of the pass, human civilization ceased to exist, and all surviving humans were caught by those humanoid monsters and used as labor.

This is why those monsters can possess industrial products, presumably they must force the captured humans to produce them.

The translator exchanged a few words with Zhu Taran and the others, and then asked: "What are those monsters, do you know?"

Speaking of monsters, the man became very afraid again, a kind of instinct from the heart made him shake his head constantly, and he was still unable to speak to explain.

The translator had to change the question: "How many humans are enslaved by them?"

"A lot, maybe hundreds of thousands? Millions? I don't know. Quite a few died."

He continued to describe it incoherently, roughly meaning that all the surviving humans in the west were captured and imprisoned by those monsters, and used them to produce the materials they needed, dig ore, forge iron, forge armor and weapons, or engage in other labor.

He also said that his name was Leonard, he used to be an electrician, and he had been working as a coolie in the barracks since he was caught.

Xu Ling called the translator and asked, "How did you survive the demonization?"

Leonard finally got used to speaking with the expeditionary army at this time, and he was much more fluent than before. He replied: "More than 100 years ago, our people discovered a huge cave on the cliff, leading to the center of the mountain. , we’ve been living in it.”

Everyone asked him about people from other places he knew, and learned that all the surviving humans were similar to the Snowfield or the City of Miracles, and either obtained some means to fight against monsters, or had hiding places.

"But everything has changed, those monsters are too strong, they are very smart, ahem, I mean, smarter than those beasts."

Leonard's spirit is still a little confused.

Xu Ling asked again: "When did the monster that captured you appear?"

"I don't know, maybe five years ago, six years ago, maybe four years ago."

Xu Ling narrowed his eyes. Although the other party didn't explain the time point clearly, he had a feeling that the time when the humanoid monster appeared should be consistent with the time he traveled through.
